Let me guess ... the table saw that hides the blade when they try and cut a hot dog.

I'll use my common sense and general knowledge of woodworking and safety to not cut my fingers off with my current table saw.

Table saws aren't too bad, unless you're being a jackass and trying to rip a small piece without a pushing stick, or you're trying to manuever a 4x8 sheet by yourself and forget where the blade is //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

At least they're safer than radial arm saws...

still impressive. but if you cut yourself while using a table saw, you almost deserve it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Yeah i was going to say that its pretty hard to do but i think most of its focus is for wood shops at schools were most people are just getting into working with these kind of saws.

Did that and its ridiculous. Its so hard.

make a little wooden outfeed table on your table saw, and then have some adjustable stands with rollers on them on the sides. Just make sure the wooden table is level with table saw and your good to go.

example of a homemade outfeed table:

I have one of those except its on the other side of the blade? Guy that used to work at the woodshop built it.

is it on the outfeed side or the infeed side? Just move it to the out feed side and put a roller on the infeed side and maybe two rollers on the side if you need them.

makes it very easy to cut by yourself

more expensive but I made 4 stands that are very similar to these but i used wooden dough roller things that you use in the kitchen.
